What guests think

At Portovella Lodges & Bungalows, guests consistently praise the modern, spacious bungalows with balconies and sweeping Douro River views, very clean grounds and rooms, generous in-room breakfast baskets, a pleasant pool, and friendly, accommodating staff.

The setting is quiet and somewhat remote, with no on-site restaurant or bar, and several reviewers note that reaching restaurants or shops requires driving local mountain roads or traveling 15–20 minutes. A few guests also mention limited staff hours with occasional delays or self check-in late at night. Minor drawbacks include intermittent hot water in some units and the pool not being heated. Overall, expect a serene, self-sufficient stay with standout views and breakfast.

This property is really well managed and cared for. The view from the bungalow we stayed in was beautiful and made the stay very special. Breakfast is delivered daily and was very good. We ate in each evening, facilities worked well for this. Pool was really nice and clean and lots of lounging options.

Very nice and modern accommodation, close to the river, you can see the river from your bed and balcony A super breakfast basket will be brought to your room. As there is no bar or breakfast room you will be on your own, not really a place to get in touch with other travelers. Next supermarket and restaurants are far away (20 minutes), there is no promenade with bars or a village center. However we enjoyed 2 nights relaxing on our own.

Local é lindíssimo, o staff muito atencioso e o bangalô bem espaçoso. As únicas observações são quanto ao fato de a água quente ter acabado durante o banho e de no chuveiro não haver lugar para nada, nem o sabonete.

Portovella is truly a unique and outstanding accomodation. The property itself is absolutely magnificient: Spectacular infinity pool, super spacious high-standard appartments with great views on the Douro river. But what really makes the difference is the staff. They take perfect care of absolutely everything, indoor and outdoor areas are spotlessly clean, they prepare breakfast for you at the time of your preference, and if you have a special wish they make it possible! Overall, this is a 5 star experience without any limitations!

Dejligt nyt sted med fantastisk udsigt over floden. Fint stort værelse med altan og alt man behøver. Dejlig pool. Ikke mange restauranter i gåafstand. Men flere gode i køreafstand. God morgenmad. Servicen… den er absolut ikke værd at køre efter. Himmelvendte øjne, negative småkommentarer. Lang ventetid ved check in. Små irriterende ting, der ikke passer til stedet overhovedet

Beautiful property with breathtaking views at the west entrance to Duro valley . We stayed in the family suite with 2 full bathrooms and a small kitchen which was very convenient and large. Citrus trees on the property were blooming and the fresh scent was amazing. Fresh Breakfast was delivered to the unit. I highly recommend this place.

Em relação aos bangalôs: quartos bem aparelhados, cama super confortável e chuveiro com ótimo aquecimento, café da manhã com bastante variedade e com alimentos frescos. Ponto de observação em relação ao check-in, apesar de estar previsto que o mesmo pode acontecer entre 15:00 h as 24:00 h, as 23 horas ao chegarmos tivemos de ingressar sozinhos, ou seja, não tivemos ajuda para subir com as malas (existe carrinho de malas que foi usado no check-out).
